The Drake Passage is the body of water from Cape Horn to the Antarctic Peninsula. During the crossing of the Drake Passage, you pass your first icebergs, wildly carved by the wind and water, and observe wandering albatross and other seabirds skimming the swell, while whales breach the surface. Passing through Drake Passage is a scenic adventure.

The South Shetland Islands are a group of Antarctic islands, consisting of 11 major islands and several minor ones. Several nations maintain research stations on various islands, including Argentina, Chile, Spain and more. Most can be found on the largest, King George Island, otherwise known as Isla 25 de Mayo in Argentina, Isla Rey Jorge by Chileans, or Vaterloo to the Russians.
